By, Amanda Moser

Wednesday, April 24th Kirksville High School Exhibit, Kirksville Arts Center Come to the Kirksville Arts Center downtown to check out this gallery exhibit. It runs until April 30th, so if Wednesday isn’t your best day, you will still have a chance to visit the rest of the week. The artwork on display comes from art students at Kirksville High School. Stop by to see the work of a student you might know or a blossoming Van Gogh!

Saturday, April 27h YMCA Healthy Kids Day, Adair County Family YMCA Come out to the YMCA between 9 am to 1 pm on Saturday to check out their annual Healthy Kids Day. The event helps kick off a summer full of physical activity and family fun. There will be a 5K race in addition to all the fun and games. Be sure to contact the Y staff if you want more information about getting involved.

Vendors will be showcasing their goods, demonstrations will be taking place all day, and best of all- major door prizes will be given away to some lucky winners. Barbeque grills, iPads, Lawn Mowers- Oh My!
